Moonshine is a tiny plugin that registers itself with
Firefox to render Windows Media streams and emulates the
Windows Media Javascript API by redirecting it to Moonlight.

So when you visit a page that in the past used to embed the
Windows Media Player (for example at HBO.com or at C-SPAN),
instead you get a Moonlight-based rendering engine and uses
Microsoft's Media Pack for doing the video and audio playback.

It is trivial to install it, just go to
this page and click
on the moonshine that is right for your platform.

Internally we referred to this project as "Pornilus" a
homage to the Roman senator and patron of the arts from the
3rd century. And like Pornilus, we want to bring the arts to
the people.
